But it was also a very well-done movie. Let’s not make the mistake of belittling the film cause it’s an Asian cast (?). Well-crafted with a wonderful spectrum of larger-than-life characters whose frailties and motivations are really though through. High highs and low lows (the building blocks for good drama and suspense). Superb acting by many of the cast members (Awkwafina in the house!). Bold, lush cinematography. The film plays on the Cinderella storyline which is popular in so many cultures and just plain compelling. Crazy Rich Asians takes it up a notch and goes *beyond ‘getting the man’ to the complexities that emerge once/if she does get her man. It was, let’s be clear, a great movie on par with Titanic. It will be remembered and watched for a long time.
